MIXCLOUD SHARES LISTENING DATA & STATISTICS for 2017

Mixcloud has released a year-end data, highlighting state-by-state listening habits, worldwide trends, and other insightful ways listeners engaged with the platform’s 1.2 million Creators and 12 million DJ sets, radio shows, and Podcasts throughout 2017 – and a lot of it is quite surprising.

Starting with “most searched for genres in the US,” we can see that some form of EDM regions in most states (drum & bass, dance, bass, deep house, electronica, etc.). The rest of the country really loves hip hop and rock; California, predictably, has a penchant for reggae, and Hawaii loves tropical house. Utah really loves its psychedelic rock, and Wyoming listens to a lot of electro swing.
